ease every body of all responsibility and all trouble.

the choice depends, I had infinitely rather have the land estimated
at what to me appears an exaggerated one and make
an allowance according to such estimate, than be sent
at this late period in quest of land equally proper,
and convenient for both parties all purposes which after by a long
and most diligent research I am is not to be
found. With a map in my hand I could follow
the whole course of the river and point out the reasons
which put a negative upon this and that, and so upon
ever other place. I would do so, if so ordered; but
had I done so without to have done so without orders would have employd a
quantity of paper too so great to have any chance as to destroy all hope of its
being read. Difficult as it is to prove a negative of this sort, it
must be equally proportionably troublesome to hear follow the proof of it.
Understanding too, that your mem recollection
wants some refreshment with regard to the reasons
for adhering to the existing choice I take the liberty of
inclosing a printed paper which I as being
less troublesome to read than a written extract from
the too long discarded Memorial. Should it in point of form be deemed necessary
(which I hope will should hope would not be the case) to give in any
further reasons by way of supplement to the Memorial
actually given in, I know not how to I could avoid
